Chapter 2062: 603 Master of Magic

…

Though there are two towers, the passages exposed beneath the ruins point to the same location.

Matthew, with a slight touch of insight, grasped the situation beneath the towers.

At this moment.

He led the two, following Dania’s figure, into a narrow chamber.

It was at this point.

The projections left by the two legends of Baiyan City had already become extremely blurred.

Matthew looked at them, expecting they would have a lot to say to him.

However, the two apparitions drifted away with smiles.

Only a faint echo resonated in the chamber:

“Baiyan City, the new path of necromancers is now yours…”

Matthew couldn’t even tell if this message came from Dania or Dickens, or perhaps it was the combined consciousness of both.

So he could only wave his hand generously:

“Rest in peace.”

Negative energy surged forth.

Before long.

Two orderly gravestones appeared in the corners on both sides of the chamber, with the names of the two legends of Baiyan City prominently inscribed.

A faint white light shone.

The spirituality destined to vanish with the wind slowly gathered upon the gravestones under the guidance of negative energy.

“Ding dong ding dong!”

Matthew heard such a sound.

A few seconds later.

He saw a key on each of their gravestones.

“These are the keys to the White Rock Box.”

Matthew suddenly understood.

He quickly stepped forward, pocketing the two keys, just about to take a closer look, when suddenly a black vortex appeared in the center of the chamber!

In the next second.

The harsh sound of iron chains scraping emerged from the vortex.

Then a massive black mask emerged from the vortex.

Matthew frowned.

This mask brazenly intruded, and then before Matthew, it started absorbing the residual spirituality of the two legends directed towards their gravestones!

Matthew was quite bewildered.

He hadn’t seen such an arrogant creature in front of him for a long time.

So he unhesitatingly intervened to interrupt the actions of the black mask.

Disrupted from absorbing spirituality.

The black mask appeared very displeased:

“These two had a covenant agreement with me.”

“After their death, the soul and spirituality should rightfully belong to me, it’s the fate of Order Necromancers, who are you?”

I haven’t even questioned you about where their souls went, you dare interrupt me?”

Order Necromancer?

Covenant agreement?

Matthew understood in his heart:

“Are you the Chain of Desire?”

The black mask replied arrogantly:

“Now that you know who I am, shouldn’t you step aside quickly? Eh? You are a necromancer too, why…”

Before it could finish speaking.

Matthew used the Pale Hand to press it against the wall!

“Is the news in Baiyan City really this out of touch?”

Matthew examined the black mask, which was almost deformed by his pressure, and the restless iron chains behind the mask with some amusement:

“Anyway, I don’t like your tone when you speak. If you don’t understand what respect is, I might attempt to teach you a bit…”

The black mask seemed a bit surprised.

It was silent for a long while, then suddenly chuckled dryly:

“You’ll regret it.”

“As long as you’re a necromancer, I’m the great entity you can’t bypass on your path forward.”

“The more you offend me now, the more I anticipate the day you’ll kneel and beg me, how humble your demeanor will be…”

“Ha ha ha ha…”

Matthew’s brow furrowed inwardly, and he couldn’t help exerting two more degrees of force.

But this black mask was not as tough as its words boasted—

“Crack!”

With a crisp sound.

The entire mask was crushed into pieces by Matthew’s pale hand!

“Clatter!”

The black vortex started to slowly close.

Numerous chains dragged the remnants of the mask as they began to retreat.

Matthew snorted coldly.

Immediately opening Lost Paradise, he forcibly intercepted most of the fragments of the black mask!

Though he knew well, the mask was probably just a projection of the Chain of Desire, leaving fragments wouldn’t cause any substantial damage beyond further agitating the Chain of Desire.

But Matthew hoped to glean more information through these fragments.

“You’ve stirred up big trouble.”

“Matthew, is it?”

“A fine name, more intriguing is the aura around you, haha, no doubt, no doubt, this is too interesting…”

The hissing laughter of the Chain of Desire came from the black vortex.

This was completely different from Matthew’s impression of the dignified and solemn Order divine artifact’s temperament.

This laughter…

Could hardly even be considered evil.

It merely conveyed a sense of sleaziness!

Matthew found it absurd.

The opposite didn’t seem like a genuine powerful entity.

Yet he remained vigilant without loosening his guard.

“The Chain of Desire is said to be an early compromise between the Seven Saint Alliance and necromancers, it’s not unusual for this level of divine artifact to possess its consciousness.”

“Based on my understanding of necromancers, this sleazy demeanor might be a personas concocted by the unpredictable spirit, meant to lull enemies or perhaps concealing more insidious designs…”

At this moment.

Matthew used “Extraordinary Insight” on the projection fragments of the Chain of Desire!

Instantly.

A large amount of information surged into Matthew’s mind like a tide.

…

“Insight (Extraordinary): Based on your perception, knowledge, and domain, you have discerned the following information—

The Chain of Desire is the origin of the Baiyan City Order faction necromancers.

This divine artefact was initially created to resolve the inherent, irreconcilable conflict between necromancers and other spellcaster factions.

As opposed to the Chaotic Necromancers.

Order Necromancers better align with the interests of the Alliance and the general public…

Here are the key points—

The creator of the Chain of Desire is a mysterious figure revered as “Master” by the three major families of Baiyan City.

This person’s name is untraceable, suspected to be a formidable figure from the same era as the Calamity Mage.

What remains puzzling is.

This creator’s origins and whereabouts are unknown, and most of his life’s deeds are undocumented, despite being at least a Superior Legend level necromancer.

Aside from crafting the Chain of Desire…”

…

The creator of the Chain of Desire?

Mysterious existence?

Matthew’s perception responded accordingly.

Suddenly.

He vaguely saw a black, towering silhouette!

It was…

A mysterious necromancer, shrouded entirely in black robes and garments!

At the same time.

An anomaly appeared in Matthew’s vision with unusual brightness.

“This is…”

“In the demiplane?”

Following the bright cue.

Matthew opened the long-unused demiplane, finally locating the source of brightness in a corner.

It was an ancient wooden box.

“It’s the treasure chest containing the Medusa Priestess!”

Matthew’s gaze became intricate.

Is that so?

This chest, sealing Neya. Pupil Shatterer, was acquired by Matthew from the Sphinx, who was instructed by the mysterious necromancer that once took Melinda to guard the item in the underground palace of the Giant Demon.

It now appears.

This mysterious necromancer is intricately linked to the Chain of Desire.

Perhaps even the creator or descendant of the Chain of Desire!

Matthew initially found the appearance of the chest rather abrupt…

“Was it deliberately given to me?”

“In Camela’s description, the necromancer seemed to transcend the God of the First Moon, traversing higher dimensions and leaving marks across the Multiverse…”

“If he created the Chain of Desire, it indeed makes sense.”

Though this still does not explain the peculiar sleazy aura of the Chain’s unpredictable spirit.

But it has at least clarified some threads for Matthew.

“My original plan to let them rest here seems untenable now.”

Gazing at the gravestone in the corner of the secret chamber.

Matthew pondered for a moment and decided to retrieve them to the Lost Paradise, planning to relocate them once the Chain of Desire issue is resolved.

Besides the key.

The most valuable thing in the chamber is the plethora of spellbooks.

These spellbooks naturally attracted the newly created youth and maiden duo by Matthew.

Watching the two quickly immerse themselves in the joy of reading and learning.

Matthew left some protective spells at the scene.

Then quietly returned to the surface.

“Phew…”

“The matter should be coming to a close.”

Returning to the ruins.

Matthew sensed the nearby space was restoring order.

The miraculous fountain that met his gaze gradually dissipated amid ongoing blessings and gratitude from the Plane Will of Arcane Wilderness.

Everything was returning to tranquility.

And at this moment.

The changes within Matthew also welcomed the final burst——

Accompanied by rounds of shaping from Legendary Power.

Accompanied by the disappearance of the two Baiyan City necromancers’ remnants.

The rewards from the two legendary advancement quests materialized into genuine strength, fusing into Matthew’s body.

First was the Elite Advancement from the Fairy Flower Garden.

It brought Matthew an anticipated legendary blessing and a new ability.

“Fairy Wisdom (Blessing): No matter how many profession’s advancements you currently possess, your Total Level can always be +1 on the current basis.”

“Arcane Heart (Ability): When using all signature spells, not only will it not consume any mana, but it will also return a portion of mana and Focus based on Attack effectiveness.”

The former directly elevated Matthew’s level to LV24, merely a step away from Superior Legend.

While the latter offered incredible endurance capabilities, even granting Matthew the chance to achieve an enchanting loop of magic perpetual motion via signature spells.

Yet what Matthew anticipated most was the reward from the “Seven Saint Advancement.”

First were two exclusive legendary blessings.

“Calamity Disciple: You’ve become a disciple of the Calamity Mage, acquiring a minor glimpse of her attention, drastically boosting your luck.

When traversing other dimensions, many entities blessed by the Calamity Mage will actively show favor to you.

You may proceed to the Extreme North Floating City to learn spells unique to the Calamity Mage.”

“Master of Magic: You can select the spell domain you’re most proficient in, becoming one of the strongest masters within that domain.

If there’s no stronger competitor in that domain.

You will directly become the Master of that spell domain!”

Matthew’s eyes shone brightly.

Without hesitation, he chose “Spell – Necromancy”!

In an instant.

Endless negative energy surged into Matthew’s domain.

All elements within the necromancy spell domain roiled as if boiling water!

…

“Prompt: You have successfully become the master of the ‘Necromancy’ domain!

You have obtained partial authority over that domain…

Warning: Competitors in this domain have cast hostile gazes upon you!”
